Go!Leopards Full Volume Mascara & Dramatic Eyeliner
Go!Leopards series is especially made to make your eyes look bigger and defined. By using the eyeliner and mascara together, your eyes look much bigger, they claim.
Dramatic Eyeliner
This double ended eyeliner has got this side with a felt-tip eyeliner, and another with brown powder.
This felt-tip eyeliner is easy to control and helps you to draw thin lines, although the ink isn't black enough to my liking.
This is how it looks on my eyelids. It looks like grey rather than black.
And this end has got this sponge tip with brown powder on.
You just apply this powder on top of the liquid eyeliner.
Full Volume Mascara
Now let's move on to the mascara. I'm not sure about the packaging to be honest, I don't particularly want my mascara to have leopard print on it. This mascara is waterproof yet easy to remove with warm water.
It has this curved brush that catches all the lashes. It's impressive how it catches short lashes as well and keep the curl, but I have a problem with how wet this mascara is! It's SO wet that it makes it harder to apply on the roots as it goes everywhere, my eyelids, around my brow bones and my cheeks! It also sticks my lashes together, which means it makes it look like I have less lashes if that make sense. I will try to dry it a little bit, I hope it won't stick my lashes together then.
You can see the mascara sticking some lashes together in the photo. I wish it would coat the lashes individually and separate them, to make them look fuller. But I come across with this kind of mascara, most of the time with pretty wet formula, when it comes to Japanese mascara. This is why I don't like Japanese mascara much, they are focused on the length not the volume.
I wish the eyeliner was more black, and the mascara was drier. Overall I think those are OK products, not too impressive that I would rush and go buy them.
Have you tried them before?
Celebrating Sakura
Thursday, 3 April 2014
Spring is definitely my favourite season. When it's warm and sunny outside, it instantly makes me happy and I would just go outside without a plan. The other morning my mum told me it was a really nice weather and she was thinking of going to go see Sakura. And of course I joined her!
It was a little bit windy but a very sunny day. Sakura was almost fully bloomed. Because it was a week day, the area was pretty quiet despite the beautiful weather.
Spring in Japan is definitely the most beautiful season. Not only because of Sakura but the weather is fantastic too, though it tends to get windy sometimes. Sakura blooms without you knowing, and will be gone in a twinkle. That is why we love it so much, it is so fragile.
EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream Pomegranate Raspberry

EOS Ultra Moisturizing Shave Cream $4.89
I'm not going to lie, I had never used any shaving cream until I got this one a few weeks ago. I always used normal shower gel (terrible, I know) to shave, and it irritated my skin sometimes. I didn't pay attention to the process of shaving to begin with, and I didn't even think there was shaving cream specially made for women out there. But once I am educated that there were many kinds that smell and feel good, I was dying to try some out. I got this EOS one because it was on Vitacost, and the scent Pomegranate Raspberry sounded very appealing to me.
Look how cute the pump is!!
The cream contains shea butter, oat and aloe which are known for their soothing effects. It's creamy and thick enough to sit on the wet skin. It smells like raspberry candies that I instantly fell in love with, it's a fresh scent with a little bit of sweetness.
It makes it a lot easier to shave. It prevents my skin to get irritated with a razor. It helps it to shave deeper I guess, which extend the length of time between shaving. It leaves my skin silky smooth that I feel like I don't even need to apply body cream afterwords, which I do anyway, and most importantly (for me) it leaves the subtle sweet scent on my skin.
Do you use shaving cream? What's your favourite?
